Just for the record....

If your cat somehow gets a hold of the Mylicon Infant Gas drops dropper as you're dealing with a crying inconsolable infant, and then licks the Mylicon dropper, it will cause your cat to projectile vomit neon yellow puke all over the room.

This is most certain to happen all over your white shag rug, and will definitely happen as your lunch is getting cold because you're trying to console an inconsolable infant who cries if she's put down for more than a minute.

Just for the record...

Year in Pictures

In January, we ended up purchasing a DSLR camera. Even though it was a dark and rainy day, I enjoyed playing around with it from day 1: In February, we adopted our crazy and sweet kitten Bones:
In March, we took advantage of some of the great scenery in the Pacific Northwest and did a lot of hiking. This trip was up one of the Table Rocks:
In April, we ate a lot of barbeque and hung out a lot with Kait and Jesse.
In May, I got to do a Trash the Dress photo shoot for Ryan and Renee:
In June, I tried my hand at gardening:
In July, we rang in the 4th of July with friends and family. I played around with the camera some more, and I continued to play around with the camera and learning the settings:

In August, Justin's sister got married, and they made their getaway via innertube while still in their wedding clothes! (PS- I did NOT take this picture...it's the work of either Kait or her dad):

In September, we were told that the little bean was a girl, and got to see the first picture where she really looked like a BABY:
In October, I tried my hand at being crafty, and knitted up these baby booties:
In November, I got to do a photo shoot for this sweetie. It was a major accomplishment for me, because it was my first photo shoot for a non-family member or friend:
And in December, we (finally) finished the nursery, which is now just awaiting the arrival of our sweet baby girl!
Overall, 2009 was filled with tremendous blessings, but I really can't wait to see what 2010 holds in store as well!

Funny Bones

I think I've mentioned before that our cat can be a pain in the butt. Right now, she's decided that she LOVES the Christmas tree. When we're in the room, she's good as gold and just lays sleeping under the tree. However, if we leave the room for even a second, she's trying to climb the dang tree and/or to knock it over. The thing is, she KNOWS that's bad. She KNOWS that she isn't supposed to, because as soon as we come back in the room, she cocks her head, and looks at us as if to say, "What?"

Then she runs and hides. So, for the last few days, we've been shutting her in the bathroom while we're at work. I don't like doing this, but it really is the only way. And we've got her all set up in there--food, water, toys, and we even shoved some towels in the sink to make a make-shift bed.

The other night, Justin and I were home, so she was allowed out of the bathroom. We were watching some Dexter (thanks sis!), and noticed that we hadn't seen Bones for awhile. I ventured down the hallway, and saw this:



Now, even when we're home, she's taken to sleeping in the sink. It's her new favorite place. The other morning, I needed to brush my teeth, but I couldn't get her to move, so I turned the water on to a slow drip. Nope. She just laid there in the sink, sleeping. Now she guards it--if you come near the sink, she'll swat you away. She is so weird!

Picture of the Day

So first, you'll have to excuse the disaster of a house going on in the background--we're still clearing a lot of stuff out and getting ready to make a major dump run. Anyway, if you could please divert your eyes to the lower half of the picture which is our cat, I would be eternally grateful!

I think our cat Bones has entered into a destructive teenage phase. Suddenly, she is attacking furniture, ripping sheets off the bed, and just generally being a pain. She especially likes to try and run through your legs while you're walking in an attempt to trip you. Or to climb up on you pretending she's being all nice and loving, only to suddenly start biting your chin. But last night, she was actually quite sweet. In this picture, she had crawled up onto the ottoman, under the blanket, and burrowed herself against J's leg for the whole time we were watching a DVR'ed episode of Lie to Me.
